  • CAPTIVE DRAGONFLY

    Dedicated to Denisa  from Strasbourg (France)


    Denizzee.blog.co.uk


    I am a bit like a captive dragonfly,

    who lives only a scant hours;

    all the time in this world I walk runaway,

    between the soul of the sunset and the calm dawn.

     

    At the first rays of sun I born full of beauty,

    and by nightfall I’m all die humiliated;

    I don’t believe in a world as a place of sorrow,

    although I extinguished as they all bent.

     

    Sometimes I live long time  otherwise I live restless,

    but it's in the terror of the shadows that I throw myself hidden;

    towards the lamps but although secretly,

    for the flames of fires when i'm not matched.

     

    But the blazing fires attract me,
    as I jump for some strong arms;
    moments of life when everything leaving out of me,
    after getting lost in the shadows of the spaces.

    (Sou um pouco como a libélula cativa,

    que vive apenas uma escassa hora;

    todo o tempo do mundo ando fugitiva,

    entre a alma do poente e a calma aurora.

     

    Aos primeiros raios de sol nasço cheia de beleza,

    e ao cair da noite morro toda humilhada;

    não acredito que este mundo é lugar de tristeza,

    embora me extingue como todas elas dobrada.

     

    Sou longeva algumas vezes outras vezes inquieta,

    mas é no terror das sombras que lanço-me escondida:

    em direcção aos candeeiros embora  sempre secreta,

    como às labaredas das fogueiras quando não correspondida.

     

    Mas são as labaredas ardentes que atraem-me,

    como quando salto para uns fortes braços;

    fortes da vida em que tudo de mim saem-me,

    perdendo-me depois nas sombras dos espaços.)

  • A KISS OF YOU, NO!

    NO!  a kiss of you, no!

    neither the burning eyes,

    not even your hand,

    i want from you as a gift.

     

    NO!  i don't want nowhere, 

    appointments with you,
    or even your addiction,

    that we are lovers.

     

    NO! i don’t want to know who comes,

    or delays with you in the street,

    everything not let me well,

    thus can leave me naked.

    200_a kiss of you

    (NÃO!  um beijo teu não!

    nem o olhar ardente,

    nem sequer a tua mão,

    a quero de presente.

     

    NÃO quero ter em algum sítio,

    encontros marcados,

    ou sequer esse teu vício,

    de sermos namorados.

     

    NÃO quero saber quem vem,

    nem esperas na rua,

    tudo não me deixa bem,

    até me pode deixar nua.)

  • It's better...

    It's better
    To cry alone
    Aloud
    In your own place
    Than have to hide the tears.

  • someone else

    Has anybody else been in the position of their partner telling them that they are in love with someone else?

  • Last Day Of Dating A Man In His 20s...

    ...because tomorrow Steve is 30. Ha, I've told him it's probably time to trade him in for a younger model.

    I've unfortunately not done any of the things I wanted to for his birthday, because being a 'last moment' sort of person, I was going to sort it this week. But then Small Child got the pooey spewey thing that's going around, and now I've got it - was throwing up all Tuesday night, burning up on the sofa with intermittent crawls to the bathroom to pass watery foul=smelling crap all yesterday, and am now in the 'weak as a kitten' phase. All the while I've been having to look after a poorly little lad too.

    Steve is surprisingly easy to be around when I am sick. I hate people being by me, but he doesn't mind my grumpy hiding away. He'll ask me if I need anything, and go on errands for Lucozade, and then he'll shut up and keep clear. He was annoyed I wouldn't cuddle him in bed tho, even though I explained that I didn't want him to catch anything, especially for his birthday. Woke up with him wrapped round me anyway.

    So poor thing only has two cards and one present (from Small Child). Oh well, I might tell him I've written off his £500 debt to me. Not quite sure he deserves it though!

    So for now it's back to fighting Small Child for the 'good' end of the sofa, and lolling around pathetically between pale-faced chores. Can't yet make it out of the house, which is worrying as Steve has tomorrow off for partying. I love to party, but I think I'll struggle right now.

  • Lend me your eyes

    Lend me your eyes, so I can see myself,
    As you saw me that night.
    Two strangers, chatting casually over dinner,
    Until that moment, gesture, word or touch
    That told us both the way that it would be.

    As dark as my own, reflecting back to me
    Passion, seduction, longing and desire,
    The promise of the night that was to come.
    From eyes to hands to lips, the contact spread,
    Drawing us further in, and further still.

    Lend me your eyes, so I can see myself.
    I look in the mirror, try to find them there.
    Dark eyes stare back at me, the same dark eyes
    That captivated yours.
    But all I see is pain.

  • Stranger song

    You tell him to come in sit down
    but something makes you turn around
    The door is open you can't close your shelter
    You try the handle of the road
    It opens do not be afraid
    It's you my love, you who are the stranger
    It's you my love, you who are the stranger.
    ...

    And then leaning on your window sill
    he'll say one day you caused his will
    to weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
    And then taking from his wallet
    an old schedule of trains, he'll say
    I told you when I came I was a stranger
    I told you when I came I was a stranger.

  • Love hurts... some more

    Love hurts, it hurts so much,
    I don’t want it any more,
    it makes me want to run away and hide,
    I won’t do that,
    I won’t I wont.
    ‘I told you when I came, I was a stranger’.
    That is how it should be,
    that way there is no pain, no loss,
    Let it go, let it go, it doesn’t matter.
    I am jealous, I want too much.
    Learn not to want, learn not to care.
    I want not to care.
    It doesn’t matter.
    It doesn’t matter.
    Take it all away.
    Learn to be alone.
    Learn not to care.
    And if I stay?
    What difference does it make?
    I still won’t care.

  • Some things to ponder over.........

    1. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance in a relationship and find out that you still care for that person.

    2. When the door of happiness closes, another opens but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

    3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

    4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

    5. There are things you'd love to hear that you would never hear from the person who you would like to hear from, but don't be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from their heart.

    6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, in the end it fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

    7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

    8. A careless word may kindle strife, a cruel word may wreck a life, a timely word may level stress, a loving word may heal and bless.

    9. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

    10. You can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

  • Amazing

    'Are you going to be amazing again?' he asked, as we stood in the darkened hotel room, while snow flakes blew past the window, kissing deeply and slowly working our way inside each other's clothes.

    'Were you amazed?' I ask later, lying content in his arms in the warm bed.
    'So-so.'
    'Hey!'
    I reach to slap him, lifting up the duvet as I do so and letting in the air from outside. He groans and I pull myself and the covers down onto him, shutting out the cold again as we wrap ourselves around each other and kiss some more.

    Amazing.
